This new agreement makes Keeper available to U.S. educational and research institutions at pre-negotiated rates and terms in order to streamline procurement and adoption of critical cybersecurity for every member of an organization. The agreement through Carahsoft Technology is effective through May 02, 2025 contract number: MSA05012019-F.

Keeper EPM will enable educational and research institutions to monitor and control password use across the entire organization, both remote and on-prem, and set up and enforce security policies such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), password strength, no password reuse, role-based access controls (RBAC) and least-privilege access.

The Keeper zero trust, zero-knowledge security model utilizes multiple layers of FIPS 140-2 validated AES 256-bit encryption, PBKDF2, plus Elliptic Curve (ECC secp256r1) keys to ensure the protection of credentials, passwords, and other confidential information stored in the vault. Keeper integrates out of the box with an organization’s identity stack and complements SSO technologies to ensure every user on every device is always protected. The system provides custom reports, security audits, compliance reports and SIEM integration.

The Quilt, a non-profit coalition of 38 regional research and education networks across the U.S., leverages the collective purchasing power of its membership and their authorized member institutions to cost-effectively purchase best-in-breed networking technology and services. Participating member institutions benefit from special discounted pricing, a simplified procurement process, and Keeper Security’s experience as a cybersecurity leader.
